President Donald Trump has attended his second extravagant party at Mar-a-Lago in a week as tens of thousands of federal employees go without pay, leaving some of them, and many more Americans, to turn to food banks amid the longest government shutdown in history.

Images of the president were shared by guests on social media Friday at the lavish event which featured a three-course menu of beef filet, truffle dauphinoise, pan-seared scallops and a trio of desserts including “Trump chocolate cake.”

Trump was seen dining at a table surrounded by MAGA supporters, and posing with his thumbs up next to women in ballgowns. The event also featured ice sculptures and an opera performance.

Around the same time Friday, the Trump administration was allowed to continue only partially funding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program after an order from the Supreme Court blocked the decision of a lower court which had required the government to fully fund SNAP, otherwise known as food stamps.

1. Was the ice sculpture a naked woman?

Big event like that, he'd wanna go first class.

[Ocelot II]

2. The people have no SNAP? Let them eat truffle dauphinoise.

[The Blue Flower]

3. We who read history know what happens to the dauphin(oise)

Someone, somewhere, is preparing a metaphorical guillotine.

[MiHale]

4. Please don't tickle my toes...

The thought of a trump roll at dinner… metaphorically speaking, of course.



Has he lost his mind??…no just his head..

[Ocelot II]

5. I might take up knitting again.

[republianmushroom]

6. Believe Karma can be a bitch.

[mwmisses4289]

7. Well, she better hurry up.

She gonna wait until he's dead before she bitch slaps him?

[Irish_Dem]

9. I cant wait to see what he comes back as in his next life.

[William Seger]

11. I vote for "black woman" (nt)

[Irish_Dem]

12. Half Latina/half black female. LGBTQ. Every initial in the rainbow.

Dirt poor.

[William Seger]

15. Oh, yeah, much better!

Of course, every racist, misogynist, and homophobe's greatest fear is that the tables will be turned on how they've treated others.

[Javaman]

13. I like to think that the longer it takes for karma to catch up

The worse it will be

It helps me sleep at night

[Deuxcents]

26. I'm gonna start thinking that, too. Hope that helps my blood pressure

[Irish_Dem]

8. People should send back the SNAP food after they have eaten it.

Can be served as the Trump Chocolate Cake.

[BlueWavePsych]

10. K&R

[murielm99]

14. Unbelievable.

No, wait...with tsf, very believable.

[William Seger]

16. Somehow, both unbelievable and totally expected. (nt)

[Farmer-Rick]

17. Oh, I bet that felt really good to pedo Trump and his Nazi pals

Psychopaths really get their rocks off when others suffer abuse at their hands. Imagine having it all, then taking away some small help from hungry people. And then enjoying it to the extreme.

They are gleeful about the suffering they are causing. That's why they are partying.

[BigmanPigman]

25. Sadists to the core!

[Mc Mike]

18. 'tRump chocolate cake'

Tastes like tRump.

[William Seger]

19. White chocolate with orange food coloring, smells like adult diapers (nt)

[BattleRow]

20. Was there by any chance a Golden Showers fountain?

A golden calf to frolic around?

[quakerboy]

21. What do you vultures want from him?

He has been hard at work diverting government money and pardoning the worst criminals of the entertainment and financial fraud worlds takes a lot of time and energy. He has to relax sometime.

[flashman13]

22. I tried to look up truffle dauphinoise. I think it is a French cuisine potato dish with truffle mushrooms.

What ever it is, if it contains truffles it is very expensive. Nothing is too good for our new overlords.

[GiqueCee]

23. The Orange Gargoyle...

... just loves to rub everyone's noses in the the fact that he couldn't care less about the malicious cruelty that defines his regime.

I'm only a year younger than him, but I'm determined to live long enough to piss on his grave. I'm certain that line will be much longer than even the ones that stretch a thousand yards from the food banks struggling to feed those whose SNAP benefits he stole.

$40 billion for the fellow dictator destroying Argentina, but not a penny for those less fortunate IN HIS OWN FUCKING COUNTRY!

God, I hate this subhuman monster, and every one of his supporters.

[twodogsbarking]

24. How much money does he bring in per party?

[raccoon]

27. Reminds me of the movie about Hitler's last days.

Him hiding in his bunker enjoying fantastic meals and those at ground level starving.
